For the sake of debate how would people view the actions of someone who slipped a drug into a pregnant woman's drink that caused her to miscarry? How important is the life that was wrongfully taken from her and how does it vary from the importance of an unwanted foetus? I think (though could be wrong) that it isn't considered murder legally. Does the fact that another foetus is unwanted make it any less valuable? It certainly wouldn't be justifiable homicide if a mother killed her unwanted children once they were born.
